1/8 inch x 36 inch Steel Launch Rod

This one piece steel launch rod is the basis for a reliable and durable launch pad, and is best suited for small model rockets powered by motors up to C power. One piece, solid steel construction helps ensure that your models slide off the launch rod without the risk of getting hung up on a joint between two shorter lengths of rod.  And by using steel rather than aluminum, stainless steel, or tubular steel, you get a sturdy, simple, and long lived launch rod.   For this purpose, there is no need for stainless steel, because launch rods will get dirty anyway, so maintaining the rod with a bit of occasional sanding and a touch of light oil will help this rod stay functional after long periods of storage or frequent use.
